Visit a service
Welcome
You are warmly invited to attend a service at Bethel Church. Our congregation meets every Sunday at 10:00 AM and 4:30 PM. Members of our church will welcome you at the entrance and are happy to answer any questions you may have before or after the service. Whether you are already familiar with the Christian faith, looking for a church community, or simply curious to see what a service is like, you are most welcome to join us.
How does a church service proceed?
Perhaps you have never attended a church service before and are wondering what to expect. We would be happy to give you a brief overview of how our services are conducted. A typical service lasts about an hour and a half. Seating is unreserved, so you are free to choose any available seat. As the congregation enters, the organ is played.
The service is led by the minister. Together we sing psalms, listen to readings from the Bible, and pray. A central part of the service is the sermon, in which a passage from the Bible is explained and applied to everyday life. The service concludes with prayer, the singing of a final psalm, and the minister's blessing, after which the congregation returns home.
Church service in English
Our services are held in Dutch, but simultaneous English translation is available upon request. Please contact us before your visit so we can make the necessary arrangements. We hold two services every Sunday, at 10:00 AM and 4:30 PM.
Children
Children are also very welcome at Bethel Church. During the morning service, childcare is available for children aged 0 to 3. The nursery is located in the large hall to the right of the main entrance.
For children aged 4 to 6, Sunday school is available during the morning service. After the main prayer, children are invited to go to their Sunday school class, where they hear a Bible story and sing together at their own level.
The church
Giving
A voluntary digital collection is held during the church service. The proceeds are intended for the work of the church, such as church services, activities, and the church building, and for diaconal assistance to people in need. Collections are made digitally via Donkey Mobile.
Present attractively
Our congregation is an ANBI (Public Benefit Institution) recognized by the Dutch Tax and Customs Administration. Your donations to the Reformed Congregation Rotterdam-Zuidwijk may therefore qualify for a tax deduction on income or corporate tax.
Parking and accessibility

There are two accessible parking spaces located at the main entrance of the church. You can also park in the surrounding streets. Please note that paid parking applies in this area.
